The Basque Government approves the incorporation of Onkologikoa as a public resource in Osakidetza
On Monday, the Governing Council approved the decree formalizing the incorporation of Onkologikoa as a publicly owned centre in Osakidetza, which will be incorporated on 30 June with its publication in the Official Gazette of the Basque Country (BOPV).
The Health Adviser, Alberto Martínez, has stressed the importance of this step in transforming the Donostia University Hospital into a cross-border reference centre for oncology, especially after the launch of the protontherapy team in 2027, with the aim of providing specialized health coverage not only to Gipuzkoa, Bizkaia and Álava, but also to Navarra and Iparralde.
Integration includes the subrogation of the labour rights of 297 persons currently working in Onkologikoa, of whom 232 are permanent workers, who will be incorporated into the OSI of Donostialdea under the terms of the current Convention, excluding senior management contracts and individual agreements outside the Convention.
The Councillor has thanked all the people who have contributed to the completion of this process, which began again in October 2024 following a process of listening to professionals, and has stressed that this process will make it possible to open up a new horizon for health development in the Basque Country and to place the Basque health system at the international level in the field of oncology.
